cost/benefit analysis of speeding...

...cost/benefit analysis being something bored, impatient, aggressively impersonalized people typically don't do well (extrapolationg from myself, of course).

My philosophical position on rational driving behavior and my actual performance behind the wheel on the freeway at rush hour when the MORON IN FRONT OF ME WON'T CLOSE IT UP, , um, differ a bit.

Talking about people in groups, people in general, or depressingly often even the generally intelligent ones (such as me, yet another obviously above-average driver) as if they think is a classic GIGO situation: the results are baffling and frustration, but reflect observable reality poorly.
